Foot Conditions
Ingrowing Nails
In growing toe nails are one of the most common foot complaints
treated by a chiropodist. This condition can be very painful
and patients may often be very reluctant to have the condition
treated. However, we can assure you that this condition will
not resolve itself and requires specialist care. An In growing
toe nail is caused by a splinter of nail or the whole nail
causing pressure into the skin. Some In growing toe nails
are acute which means that they have occurred due to a injury
to the toe. Others are chronic, which means the patient has
had the problem for a long period of time. The large toe is
usually affected, however, it can also affect the lesser toes.
